Tongqi 36 prefectures are divided into two by a large river, the river is the Tiancang River, and the north and south are Cangbei and Cangnan, not the Jiangbei Jiangnan as many foreign barbarians call it.

The river flows eastward through Suzhou, one of the eastern Kyushus, and the riverbed before entering the sea has actually become north-south. Therefore, this Gu Suzhou is actually the southernmost state in East Kyushu.

In the north of Gusu, to the east of the river, there is a state by the sea, covering a very wide area, directly bordering the northernmost Liaozhou of East Kyushu to the north, which is Dongjiang Prefecture.

Dongjiang Prefecture of the Tongqi Dynasty occupies almost the eastern coastline of the entire dynasty territory, and beyond the coastline, there is the endless East China Sea, which shows that this state covers a wide area.

At the same time, it can be seen that only the two prefectures of Dongjiang and Gusu in eastern Kyushu are bordered by the sea, and the other seven prefectures are considered inland places. Therefore, these two states are naturally important places to travel between China and abroad, especially the larger Dongjiang Prefecture.

With such a unique geographical location, it is natural to create a mixture of fish and dragons in the entire Dongjiang River.

The capital of Dongjiang Prefecture, Jiankang.

This is the closest inland province in Dongjiang Prefecture, the sixteen prefectures in Quanzhou, and the customs and customs are most similar to those in the mainland.

Jiankang Mansion, Jiankang City.

At this time, in the hall of a three-story restaurant, an atmospheric stage door was set up.

On the stage, there is no drama or the like, only a blind old man sits at the table of the Eight Immortals, with his left hand on the table, his right hand pressed weakly, and he is wearing a cyan Confucian shirt, which is a bit of a Confucian appearance.

It's just that when the blind old man's left hand trembled and touched a purple sand teapot, and lifted it and stuffed it into his mouth, after taking two sips, the previous Confucian morale immediately weakened a lot.

And when he put down the teapot and spoke, there was no trace of Confucian style at all.

"Last time, we said that our general Wang waved the army in the northwest, and 80,000 iron cavalry broke the 300,000 alliance of the four tribes in the northwest. ”

As soon as some shrill but subdued voices sounded, the entire restaurant from the first floor to the third floor immediately fell silent. It turns out that this old man is not a storyteller.

"It is said that our Tang Cheng prince was just in his early twenties that year, but he was already the first general of Her Majesty the Empress, and the Tang family army was crisscrossing the Central Plains and Kyushu, and it was constantly expanding its territory. And the eight northwestern states are the first land to conquer. ”

The blind storyteller was like a river on the stage, and when it came to the highlights, the whole restaurant would burst into applause, and everyone's attention was on listening to the book, and naturally no one cared about the old and young who walked in from outside the gate at this time.

The old man was a little rickety, leaning on crutches with one hand and holding the burden on his shoulders with the other. It's not a big burden, but it looks quite heavy. If anyone can look closely, they will find that the old man's right hand on crutches has only four fingers, and one little finger is missing.

The boy was sixteen or seventeen years old, and his clothes did not show the slightest luxury, but they were neat and tidy. The folding fan he had just bought on his right hand had been closed by him, and he casually inserted it into the collar at the back of his neck, and a look of smiling clothes immediately appeared.

The boy raised his eyes and swept around the hall, and the good seats were occupied by those who listened to the book, only the table in the far corner was still empty, so the two of them walked straight over and sat down.

"Young master, this is talking about our prince. The old man refused to sit down at first, and at the boy's insistence, he still sat down on the boy's left hand side with some obedience.

"Lao Jiu, when you go out, we will depend on each other for our lives in the future, so don't talk about so many rules. The young man snatched the white porcelain kettle, poured a cup for the old man first, then poured a glass for himself, and drank it all.

It's white water, the young man who is used to eating and drinking in brocade clothes and jade does not have the slightest discomfort, from Tiange City to Jiankang Mansion, more than 1,000 miles have come over, and he has already tasted the ups and downs on the road.

Although there is no shortage of silver on their master and servant, their original intention of going to the rivers and lakes remains unchanged. Along the way, there is almost no difference from ordinary people, eating, drinking, living and traveling are Jianghu people.

Lao Jiu nodded with a smile, and along the way, he was impressed by the little master in front of him. Whether it is in Tiange City or the Jinchuan Royal Mansion in Liaozhou, this young master is really like a devil.

If it is said that it is the No. 1 Tianzi of the Tongqi Dynasty, there is absolutely no second person who dares to compete with it. Of course, if you meet those second ancestors who don't open their eyes, it is still possible to touch the tiger whiskers in front of you before you suffer a loss.

"What is there to say about Tang Cheng's matter, I have heard him say it 8,000 times at home, all of which are boasting in front of me about how powerful he was, how brave and good at fighting, and how many women like him. After the young man poured himself another glass of water and drank it, he continued: "If you want to talk about fighting, maybe you can make a living, but if you want to say that you like women, hum, if it wasn't for my mother being drugged by him, then it must be that he went crazy and was taken advantage of by him." ”

Thinking of this, the young man smiled evilly and said: "As for my aunts, I have long heard that it was because of my mother that I went to Tang Cheng's thief bed, where is he to attract women." ”

Lao Jiuduan's hand trembled, the stunned expression on his face flashed, and he secretly admired in his heart: "In the whole world, dare to say that the lord of the prince, I'm afraid I can't find a few except for the little overlord in front of me." ”

Not long after the two sat down, it was the sharp-eyed shopkeeper who found out that he was holding a rag that was not white, and Xiao Er lowered his eyebrows and stood in front of the two, and said with a smile: "Do you two want to eat or stay in the hotel?"

"Fill your stomach first, let's have a good pot of tea, this white water is about to fade out. The young man's tone is full of arrogance, and it can be seen that after walking more than 1,000 miles, he has become a "Jianghu person".

Xiao Er is naturally in contact with three teachings and nine streams, and his speech is also exquisite, without this ability, how can he do Xiao Er's errand well.

"Since this son said so, then I would recommend one of our signboards of 'Come to Live Again', which is aged for 'three days of drunkenness', and you don't want to drink any tea after you drink it. ”

"Oh, drunk for three days?" The boy has been secretly drinking all kinds of good wine since he was a child, even the tribute wine from all over the world has been drunk a lot, but he has never really been drunk.

On the one hand, he is not greedy for cups, and on the other hand, there is naturally someone watching him, once there are signs of drunkenness, the guards will force the wine out of the body through secret methods or luck as soon as possible.

In the words of several aunts in the young man's family, how can the only seedling son of our family get drunk and pour out foreign appearances casually.

Therefore, as long as the young man drinks, the masters who are in charge of guarding in the shadows, whether they are low-handed, will always feel that they have a place to use.

As long as they can show their hands, they are something to be proud of. There's no way.,As a guard, you almost don't have a chance to show your skills.,How unexistent it must be.。

The only little prince of the Tianzhu royal family in the same Qi Dynasty, who is tired of being crooked, will want to assassinate, rob and kidnap tickets or something.

"It's easy to understand the name of your restaurant, it's nothing more than a second and third time after eating it once, but what kind of wine is so powerful? It can make people drunk for three days?" the young man asked curiously.

"This boy must have just come to Dongjiang Prefecture, right?" Before it was Xiao Er's turn to speak, one of the three men at the other table next door took the lead to speak.

The man was forty or fifty years old, with a big beard, and in these five months, he was actually wearing a fur coat. The two people sitting next to him looked similar to him, and next to the bench where they were sitting, they both leaned on a single-ring broadsword.

As soon as he walked into this restaurant, the young man almost observed the people inside, and most of them looked like people from the rivers and lakes, and there were a hundred and ten kinds of weapons that were full of weapons, either lying on the table, or leaning on a convenient stool, and of course, some of them were always on their backs.

The young man looked at the big man, nodded with a smile, Lao Jiu, who was sitting next to him, raised his head, and then squinted his eyes and lowered his head, but no one noticed that the essence in his eyes flashed.

"Speaking of this'drunk for three days', no one in our Dongjiang rivers and lakes does not know, this is also the love of our people in the rivers and lakes, only a real hero can withstand its fierceness. As he spoke, the big man raised the bowl in his hand, and because it was too strong, a little wine spilled out.

He raised his head and drank the wine in the bowl, touched his beard casually, and said with a flushed face: "This bowl of 'drunk for three days', uncle, I don't have to drink for three days." ”

The young man's curiosity was aroused, so he arched his hand to the big man and said, "Brother Tai has a good amount of wine." ”

"Where, where. "Dahan is not too modest, after all, the prestige of being drunk for three days is not ordinary, and such a booze does require a good amount of alcohol.

"Brother Tai must know the origin of this wine, I don't know if you can explain a thing or two?" The young man ignored the shopkeeper standing on the side for a while, and even forgot about the meal for the time being.

"I only know where it came from, but I don't know the details. However, if Childe is interested, he can go to this winemaking place to find out. As the big man spoke, his eyes inadvertently glanced at the burden on the young man's table, and then continued: "The three of us brothers are about to go to sea, if you want to go, you can just go with us." ”

"Go to sea?" the young man looked surprised, and at this time, the little two on the side replied.

"Childe doesn't know, this 'drunk for three days' is from overseas Penglai Island, and if you want to go there, you really have to go to sea. ”

"Old Jiu, how about we go and see?" the young man rolled his eyes, then turned his head and asked the nine-fingered old man on the side.

"Well, if the young master wants to go, then it's okay to go and see. Lao Jiu said with a smile, his tone was extremely relaxed.

"Since this is the case, then we will leave when we are full, and we will have to walk for a few days to the beach from Jiankang City, so don't delay. Seeing that the old man and the young were willing to go with them, Dahan was overjoyed, and he let Xiao Er eat a lot of food while talking.

The boy was already hungry, so when the food he ordered was served, he immediately ate a lot, and completely ignored the things of storytelling and listening in the restaurant.

"I don't know what to call this boy?" After the big man had eaten almost something, he remembered to ask the young man's name for some reason.

"Oh, in Xia Tang Huaiyu, brother Tai can just call me Xiao Tang. This is the old housekeeper in the family, the old nine. The boy replied with food in his mouth.

"Surname Tang?" When the Han first heard this name, his heart tightened, isn't this lord of Eastern Kyushu the prince of Tang, this kid's surname is Tang?

But soon he laughed, because in his opinion, the two outsiders in front of him, who were dressed ordinarily and obviously came to Dongjiang Prefecture for the first time, could not have anything to do with the palace.

"It turned out to be Tang Gongzi, our brother has eaten and drunk enough, so we will go out and wait for the two of us first. The big man got up and arched his hand, and went out of the restaurant with his two companions.

Tang Yulou nodded with the rice bowl, and his hand did not stop, and he didn't look like he had any grace at all.

Only the corners of the mouth of the nine fingers, who were chewing slowly on the side, inadvertently showed a sneer, and the smile was full of disdain.

When the three big men came out of the restaurant, they saw a slightly dilapidated carriage parked in the open space, and although the horse pulling the carriage was tall, it was a little thin. Needless to say, this is the frame of the old man and the young man in the restaurant.

The three of them winked at each other, and then came to the carriage as if nothing had happened, but they waited patiently, but no one noticed that there was an iron beam exposed on the roof of the carriage. On the iron beam, there are countless marks that seem to have been hit by sharp weapons, and no one can find them.

And on the roof of this 'Coming Again' building, a very rare big bird is looking down to eat, under its claws, a piece of flesh and blood is blurred, and on the corner of its hooked mouth, there is a piece of raw meat, and there is fur on the meat.
